I wonder.

It looks like the people posting here don't have that much btc/cash/funds and are almost all small fish. One of the reasons is of course the bounty hunters. People with >100btc don't need bounties. People with >1000btc don't need this forum lol... So I wonder, all the fud, shilling etc here. Does it really have an impact on prices? I tend to believe we are all manipulated big time by real whales with 100's and 1000's of btc. If a group of eth hodlers of several 100k eth decide together: let's go down today, then we will go down. When prices are down enough they decide to go up. Thoughts? This pattern is the most obvious on reall small exchanges with bullshit coins. Look at some of them! You KNOW they are worth nothing and all of a sudden they moon and drop.

Your thougts are right,most of the people who has huge amount of bitcoins doesnt need this forum but the bounties isnt all about the money,its about promoting a good project that has potentials in the future,i have a friend which has 1,500 bitcoins but still he is joining bounties and ICO investment because he know it is an extra source of cash which is true,about the market manipulations these big players,i am not talking about whales im talking about bigger players which consists financial institutions like CME and Wallstreet are indeed manipulating the market,they will spread some FUDs causing people to do panic selling which they are intended to achieve so they can get a good entry point with lower coin's prices that tha usual then will sell it on peaks and then re-peat the process,they are making billons of dollars by only making some panic at the market.

So many big whales are on this forum in case you guys want to know. Some are always on the quiet side and prefer to remain like that, while some contribute pretty well, but they obviously do not join campaigns, not sure they need that. Also, this is a community, so will I say we do not have an impact as a community? I would not think so. We sure do, it may be little but an impact is an impact, but obviously you cannot compare a mackerel to a whale.
